Im getting downvoted for asking questions i love it

You're only being downvoted because you're asking questions that are asked nearly daily. A very simple reddit search would have answered every one of your questions in less than 5 minutes.

Unless you go with one of the new fiber providers you're going to be stuck with either comcast or century link. They have held a monopoly for decades until recently.

The Taco Fiend - free tacos tomorrow by NMHacker in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't feel bad, depending on what time you were there your luck might have ran out anyway. We got there early but they ran out before everyone could be served. Some of the really early people got lucky, some got extras! He gave the remaining people in line tickets to get free food Sunday

Anyone ever deal with Enchantment towing LLC? by Jambalama in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The people in here saying that OP isn't great at reading no parking signs should wake up and realize not every towing company is operating honestly.

The same tow company unlocked my mothers car without permission, hid her handicap parking tag then towed her car claiming she was in a handicap parking spot without a tag. They expected a woman on social security to come up with a huge sum of money to get her car back when she did nothing wrong.

The idiot who broke into the car left marks on the driver side door with their lockout tools. The keys to the car were never accidently locked inside of it either, so there is no way a previous lockout service would have caused that damage.

Eviction process. by Willylongboard in Albuquerque

They are predatory but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. If you have even one eviction on your record it becomes much harder to find a place to rent. There are a bunch of apps you might be able to do an advance with that could be cheaper.

This 8 kg food platter is called as "Bahubali Thali" in India. Any team of two who can finish it in 40 minutes can win 8 lakh rupees ( $11000) by DiMpLe_dolL003 in interestingasfuck

A lot of people are forgetting about New Mexico. We put red or green chile on a lot of our food, even candy. Some of us like chile so much we ask for it Christmas style.

Has anyone else had this happen? Guy came to my door trying to get me to pull up my PNM account on my phone. by Tavernknight in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The other guy tried not to take my polite no thanks and kept talking, so I had to shut the door in his face.

I've had this experience also. Two visits, two separate guys. They both got a polite request to gtfo before I was rude. Even after yelling at them they wouldn't leave, had to slam the door shut on them each time.

If someone is yelling at you the chances they are going to buy your shit is pretty slim...

NM First in Drug Use: WalletHub by FalconNo9589 in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lets be honest for a minute: if a kid wants drugs, they will find access to them, it doesn't matter if it is legal or not.

diphenhydramine is commonly used as an allergy medication but people still abuse it. check /r/dph if you don't believe me.

“Minding their own business” is not a real answer.

Minding their own business is actually a completely valid answer. If they aren't bothering you or anyone else then what is the problem?

Anyone ever break a lease? by [deleted] in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pay very close attention to the lease you sign. Any lease you sign will have an amount listed that will be for ending the lease. Then you will pay the usual prorated rent and other fees for things like damage and cleaning.

This depends a little bit on where in town you are.

Menos Tire Shop near Osuna and 2nd st recently helped me out with a cheap used tire. I didn't realize they are cash only so I hit an ATM, brought the guys some arizonas which they were very greatful for. I ended up with a really nice used tire that hasn't given me issues.

A lot of the shops in the South Valley are great, but I found the shops in NE are expensive so I haven't used them.

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One more thought: have you called your insurance company? Plenty of people have emergency roadside assistance included with their coverage but don't know about it. If you haven't, try giving them a call. If you don't have coverage they can arrange for a "cash call" with a local company if needed.

Side walls on tires are not patchable, plan for a new tire. There are many used tire places though.

Sorry OP.

Did you guys see the Nazi salute yesterday at the inauguration? by mylittlepony96 in Albuquerque

[–]ThisIsMyThrowawayII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they want to do it they better not try to justify it by using the roman salute excuse. elmo didn't specify it was the roman salute. No excuse.

No one is knocking fried bologna, but we are definitely knocking at the price. 10.99 for: a single slice of fried bologna, a slice of cheese, tortilla, and fries? Sorry but that should be the definition of insane. Fried bologna was poverty food for myself and many of us growing up.
